The aim of the project is to design a system which would automatically focus onto a circular black cardboard(of about 10 cm diameter) placed on a 2m x 2m white wall and then automatically fire a laser to hit the target(i.e., the black cardboard). The device is to be placed at a distance of 10 m from the white wall.
I came up with a rough plot of it which I've jotted down below.
1. Take the photo of the entire 2mx2m white wall located at a distance of 1m from the device.
2. From the image, locate the black target,provided within the white background wall, and obtain it's spatial orientation(it's 3d coordinates).
3. Find a mechanism to orient the system and thus align it in accordance with the position vector so obtained in step 2 and thus focus on the target.
4. The system must then automatically fire a beam of laser to hit the target.
This was what I could best think of.
Now I wonder if there are any relevant techniques to achieve them.
I shall be pleased to know if there are any simpler ways to solve this.
Thanks in advance!
